Introduction
Vaisala GMM220 transmitter modules are versatile instruments for measuring CO2 in
industrial applications. The CARBOCAP® sensor is silicon based and its operation is
based on the NDIR Single-Beam Dual-Wavelength principle. The modules can be
configured for different CO2 measurement ranges and analog output ranges.
The GMM220 module consists of a component board, cable and a CO2 probe. The
shorter probe model (GMP221) is for higher and the longer model (GMP222) for lower
CO2 concentrations. A waterproof connector connects the probe to the cable. The probe
also features a non-volatile memory for storing the calibration parameters. This enables
interchangeability of the probes and allows easy field calibration by exchanging the
probe with a freshly calibrated one.
Mounting
For power supply and analog outputs, the board is available either with pinheaders on
bottom side or with screw terminals on top side; serial interface has always a pinheader.
If the board has pinheaders, mount it by soldering or plugging it into host board's female
connectors.

Electrical Connections
Analog outputs:
- 0 common for both analog outputs
- V voltage output (default 0-1 V, on request 0-2 V, 0-2.5 V or 0-5V)
- mA current output (default 4-20 mA, on request 0-20 mA)
Serial interface:
The interface is a 5 V (TTL) level full duplex serial port.
Probe wires: If the CO2 module is ordered with a separate probe cable, solder the wires
to the component board according to colors shown in Figure 3.

LEDs:
- Normal operation: Led V8 (red) is not lit and Led V9 (green) is blinking.
- Measurement out of range: Led V8 (red) is blinking and Led V9 (green) is blinking,
maximum value is shown. GMM220 returns to normal operation when CO2 drops
within range.
- Error state: Led V8 (red) is blinking and Led V9 (green) is blinking, no readings. In
error state, check first that the probe is properly connected. In case of constant error,
please contact Vaisala Service Centers.
Port settings: Baud rate 9600, data bits: 8, stop bits :1, parity: none, flow control: none

Pressure Compensation
If altitude differs significantly from sea level (default), a pressure compensation should
be made.
